Revisiting the concept of gratitude in Positive Psychology is the gratitude journal that in essence are daily writings of 5 things one is grateful for. This practice, has been highly associated with one's capability to be happy.
Today I'm grateful for the following:
1. My dad who has ever been so patient with me. I know I can be very demanding, defiant and rude especially towards him but he never fails to patiently remind me to relax, to savor whatever enjoyment I can get out of a frustrating situation.
2. Relaying my frustrations about work to my dad, the feedback I got was to be professional. If there are comments from my bosses about my output, I shouldn't take it personally but instead offer alternatives and other solutions to be able to attain the desired results.
3. My sister, has reminded me that part of the process of one's professional life is stress which may involve crying and egos flaring depending on how one handles it, but the final output will be worth it if a team is willing to work hard.
4.I'm glad for that phone call from Kate. She reminded me to support our friend Jam who's running for a Kagawad position in the upcoming Barangay Elections. She also reminded me of the other job opportunity awaiting me and I'm deeply thankful for her thoughtfulness and concern for my career path.
5. I'm thankful to my Lola who kindly gathered and folded the clothes I washed earlier this morning while we went out to do the grocery. She will always be one of the best persons in the world for me.
